Lincoln Prep (7-1) 0-1 vs MSHSAA Glossary
- Thread starter Bill_Shakespeare
- Start date
Subvarsity doesn't mean JV only. It means anything below Varsity level. This includes JV, Freshmen, Freshmen A Team, Freshmen B Team, C Team and Sophomore Team. I don't believe I've missed any variation unless some large private school has 3 Freshmen teams in a sport.
If they substituted out an injured player in the 2nd Freshmen game and they beat another team from the state of Missouri does that make them Subfreshmen Substate Champions?
I'm a little surprised (or maybe have a hard time believing) that a Head Coach and an AD don't know the rules and wouldn't know the kid couldn't play Varsity football (I don't care that they are both 1st timers in the position, it's their job to know). Why would they tell them he can't start but he can be a Sub, that makes no sense. Hard to buy that explanation.
That being said, as always, MSHSAA sucks at their job and could have been more detailed in their response so there is no misunderstanding. And honestly there is no consistency with these decisions, let the kids play.
What a clown show. Typical of the Kansas City School District. Definition of Sub . under : beneath : below. No mention of the word Starter.
From what I can tell yes. St. Pius Festus was playing to many quarters. This looks like this kid was ruled eligible for JV games only and the coach still played him in Varsity Games.
Prior to reading the email I wasn’t sure a coach or AD could mistake “sub-varsity” for being a substitute on varsity.
Imagine the audacity of penning that claptrap, chalk full of inane errors in grammar and syntax, and sending it to an administrator..
Not to say anything of the notion of taking to social media to post the drivel publicly
WhIle, of course, taking special care to leave the kids name in the subject line.
Hilarious

This whole situation might be the dumbest attempted coverup I've ever heard. The explanation doesn't pass the B.S. test.
If the AD really thought subvarsity meant you could not start games but come in as a substitute he needs to resign immediately cause he has no business being an AD. Just admit you screwed up and got caught. What nonsense.
Could be but they already sent a letter to the parents that didn't mention an appeal. The letter made it sound final.
I don't think you should be able to play post-season games if you are busted for ineligibility violations. It's either a lack of institutional control or on purpose. Is this a hot take?
Will they forfeit all of their games? If so, will they be a 6 or 7 seed behind Southeast or Center or both?
They beat both of those teams but will depend on which games are on the forfeit radar.
Current C4 D7 standings have Grandview (4) hosting Lincoln Prep (5) essentially the Forfeit Bowl. Wow.

Winner going down to Nevada (regardless what happens vs. unbeaten and favored Seneca) could be a real, real interesting one.
Pretty much locked in that the winner of CJ Harrisonville will be in the district title game. I don't think Grandview could make up 5 points even if they won.
From what I saw last Friday night their only chance is get a big lead early and hold Smithville off. Very, very doubtful even given they do have good RBs, a serviceable QB and a big athletic O Line. Depth is the ongoing issue there.
